Oh no! Please don't do that extremely boring mission

It doesn't really make much sense.
Yeah, you have good point. When I track sub, sometimes i need to change direction for better TMA work. That means my tracking is not continuous.

In my opinion in this kind of mission, trigger should check range between you and target. You can do some test what is optimal maximum range for each sensor for tracking specific SSBN.
In this case "IsDetectionHeldNow trigger should work fine.

I remember one Bill Nichols mission from RSR campaign have similar task.
